What about the quarantine of the nurse in NJ? I understand she had a fever, was returning from the "hot spot" of Ebola, but why was she put in a TENT, for quarantine with no running water? WTH? A tent vs some kind of isolation ward at a hospital?

She has now been discharged (no fever and negative blood test) and NJ will provide transportation for her to ME.

More people in the US will die due to the Flu than will ever die from Ebola. It's much ado about nothing stirred by fright-wing radio and their purveyors of fear. (One way to keep those old hearts pumpng)

I just want our government to protect us. Not appoint the VP's old mouthpiece to manage the information for an election.
Check where your 'news" comes from. That may be where 100% of the "don't trust the government" (until after the next election maybe) nonsense comes from.

Strange, but I didn't say where I got MY news. I said where you get your news. Too bad your prejudices have destroyed any sense of balance you might have had at one time or another. (and don't let the door hit you if you can't answer. I have no idea who Rachel Maddow might be, but my news comes from a number of sources and she isn't one of them).

It was obvious when you go name calling by using "fright wing"

Try to be more understanding as my daughter is in Dallas, and son in Atlanta. Both areas that have/had patients.
When you ask me to basically stick my head in the ground and compare to the flu as that's the mantra of the lemmings, I disagree as the mortality rate is so high.
I don't post in vintage very often, now I remember why.
Sorry to disturb you guys.
Peace out as the door's hit me in the tail.

I beg to differ. I don't think it much matters where your news comes from or where on the political spectrum you are, it has become harder and harder to trust our government, and anything any government agency says.
